This is my favorite way to make garlic bread. It doesn't take any extra time and it looks really impressive on the table. This recipe is for garlic bread, but use it as a jumping off point to fill with any combination of cheese, onion... anything that you like! I have made one stuffed with provolone, asiago and pepperoni slices as well as one made with pepper jack cheese and green onions. Have fun with it and make it your own!
